Manila Killa, pluko and ilo ilo are three producers known for telling a story through their works. Often vocal-driven pieces, the artists use emotion to evoke strong feelings within their listeners, and it was only a matter of time before they came together on a mega-collaboration.
Out now on Moving Castle, ‘on the way’ is a Cinderella story in the making, with ilo ilo stating, “we write a lot of songs about heartbreak. This isn’t one of those songs. We wanted to find a cool way to bridge our three sonic worlds.” What initially started as a studio session between Manila Killa and ilo ilo evolved into full blown collaboration between the three acts, with each offering a distinctive touch to the final product. ‘on the way’ is a lush, cutesy ballad that uses crisp vocals to captivate your attention in the introduction, before the musicality shines through during the drops. Not overbearing with complexity yet still pulling on your heartstrings through its catchy breaks, ‘on the way’ is bound to put a smile on your face. Don’t miss it below.
